Glutathione 1500mg

For Research Use Only – Not for Human Consumption

Glutathione (GSH) is a low-molecular-weight, thiol-containing tripeptide composed of L-glutamate, L-cysteine, and glycine, and is recognized as a central intracellular antioxidant and redox regulator. Its roles in maintaining cellular redox homeostasis, detoxification of xenobiotics, and modulation of immune function have made it a compound of significant interest in biomedical and translational research.

Mechanistic Significance:
Glutathione serves as the principal non-enzymatic antioxidant within mammalian cells, neutralizing reactive oxygen species (ROS), free radicals, and lipid peroxides through direct scavenging or as a cofactor for glutathione peroxidases (GPx) and glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs). It also participates in the reduction of disulfide bonds in proteins, thereby preserving protein structure and function under oxidative stress conditions.

In addition to its antioxidant capacity, glutathione plays a critical role in Phase II hepatic detoxification, where it conjugates with electrophilic toxins to form glutathione conjugates that are rendered water-soluble and excretable via bile and urine. Its intracellular concentration is a key determinant of cell viability, proliferation, and immune resilience.

Immunological and Metabolic Research Applications:
Glutathione modulates both innate and adaptive immunity by:

• Enhancing T-lymphocyte proliferation and cytotoxic function

• Supporting natural killer (NK) cell activity

• Regulating cytokine production and antigen presentation

It is also essential in diverse metabolic processes, including:

• Amino acid transport across membranes

• DNA synthesis and repair

• Enzyme activation and prostaglandin biosynthesis

• Regulation of nitric oxide cycles and mitochondrial function

Disease-Relevant Models:
Due to its centrality in redox balance and detoxification, glutathione is extensively studied in models of:

• Neurodegeneration (e.g., Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s disease)

• Oncology (as a determinant of chemoresistance and oxidative tumor stress)

• Cardiometabolic disorders

• Immunodeficiency and chronic inflammatory conditions

Analytical Validation:
Each batch of glutathione is synthesized under GMP-compliant conditions and validated using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry (MS) to ensure optimal purity, structural integrity, and assayable consistency.
